Sartana in the Valley of Death
Smooth and lethal gunfighter Lee Calloway helps three bandit brothers escape from jail under the condition that they give him fifty percent of the stolen gold they have hidden. Of course, the treacherous sibling trio don't plan on keeping their end of the deal.
Curator's Take
“Sartana returns (though usually played by a different actor in these knock-offs). This one is standard fare, gadgets, impossibly fast draws, and a plot that serves only to set up the next shootout.”
Why This Movie Is Important
Part of the endless Sartana cycle, this film reinforces the character as a supernatural trickster. It is pure escapism, where style, fashion, and impossible gunplay take precedence over realism or plot.
